Tossed Broccoli Salad

Original Recipe from:  Kay Johnson-Tomblin

When I was a child I hated broccoli!  As an adult, it’s one of my favorite vegetables.  I could eat it every day and never grow tired of it.  To me it’s a perfect food….tastes great and has so many health benefits.  This salad is quick and easy (a must for busy households) to make, plus makes a great presentation on your table.  Make this refreshing salad for your friends and family today…you can even get the kids involved.  Statistics prove that when kids participate in making vegetables, they are more apt to actually eat them.  This recipe can be cut in half for smaller households.  Enjoy!
